Philipines president urges people to shoot drug dealers

The Philippine president-elect, Rodrigo Duterte, has encouraged the public to give him a hand in the war against brazen drug dealers by shooting and killing those who resist arrest. “Please feel free to call us, the police, or do it yourself if you have the gun — you have my support,” Duterte said in a televised address. He described an extensive illegal drug trade that involves even the country’s police.
